Topic: Holiday Traditions (Read 40 times)

I always miss my parents the most around the holidays. I don't get sad because the memories bring a smile to my face and warm my heart, but I still miss them nonetheless. Do you honor your parents by celebrating the traditions they taught you for Christmas, New Year, etc.?

I dont think I do things just to honor my parents, but yes indeed, I do things I grew up with. And what fond memories it brings back. This year though no chestnuts.. That was a let down, but no store carried them. One store said last year every box they got in was moldy so they werent ordering any this year!

Hmm, I never considered it honoring my parents per se, but I suppose it is in a way! Christmas was always a "big deal" to my mother growing up and I still have that ingrained in me. I especially love the holidays because I get to see all of my children (they all come and visit me - I'm the host.)
